The Horned Frogs come into this game fresh off a huge win last week against a ranked Oklahoma team. Last weekend’s games provided some truly memorable match-up’s, with the TCU game very high on the list. It was a back and forth game that saw the lead change hands several times. It was the Horned Frogs who prevailed though, outlasting the Sooners for a 37-33 win and a perfect 4-0 record. Prior to that game, they hadn’t seriously been tested, running up big double digit wins over Samford, Minnesota, and SMU, going 4-0 ATS in the process. Baylor has yet to be seriously tested this year, and have in fact made a habit of routinely blowing teams out. They started out with a pair of home games where their offense exploded for a combined 115 points. Their next three games in the calendar came on the road, where they racked up a further 140 points. They have been something of an offensive juggernaut, with a good deal of the damage they have inflicted coming by pounding out the run game. If TCU are to have a chance here, they need to stuff the run and win the turnover battle, which is something they have done well this season.
